Jets quarterback Mark Sanchez runs on treadmill for first time since surgery

APMark Sanchez is working his way back from offseason knee surgery.Mark Sanchez did some running on a treadmill for the first time since his offseason knee surgery, NJ.com's Manish Mehta reports.

The knee operation took place back on Feb. 17.

It seems the knee rehab is going well. Mehta writes:

Sanchez, who had been rehabbing on an underwater treadmill for weeks,
is working with his trainer at USC. He predicted last month that he’d
be running by mid-May with the hope to the field by the team's three-day
minicamp June 14-16. The second-year pro said two weeks ago that he hoped to be running on
the ground sometime around mid-May, so it appears he’s slightly ahead
of schedule.

Jets coach Rex Ryan said that Sanchez is certainly "not going to be rushed all the way back."
